Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sting Like A Bee; Under The Sun; Mosque II; Guiding Light (4 works) by Muhammad Ali was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in December 2021. The price achieved of USD 4,080.00 (€ 3,604.88) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Muhammad Ali achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sting Like A Bee, 1978 in October 2021 with an auction result of USD 425,312.50 (€ 368,172.18).
